About Z

Full-time publicist, part-time writer, and round-the-clock ambassador to wit and humor, Zlata is a Jersey Girl making her way through life in South Florida with her husband, Alex, and their sweet pup, LexZ. Zlata’s a self-taught home cook who relies on taste bud science for her mostly simple, sometimes healthy/sometimes not, always delicious recipes. When she’s not crafting kitchen concoctions, Zlata can be found reading an awesome book (translation: trashy magazine), crossing the line between ‘funny’ and ‘inappropriate,’ and fantasizing about being a Real Housewife of Palm Beach.

Stalk Me.

When Zlata isn't buzy figuring out how the world can make the letter Z the new black, she spends her time celebrating others in White. Honored as a 8 –times over bridesmaid (with a few more engagements in the works,) a former habitual dater, and networking extraordinaire, this saucy, loud-mouthed girl gives it to you like it is and rarely skips a beat.
For those still vying for her digits, they stay connected through her blog at IhaveZlataThoughts.com, which has been entertaining and making people giddy since its inception. Hope you enjoy the LaughZ. Got it?
